Some Questions Before We Get Started With Your Seat

The following Q and A might be of help for you, especially if you are completely new to PC gaming chairs and have not yet decided if such a seat is going to find its way into your game room. But even if you have already made your choice to buy one, there are still some aspects you might be curious about:

Do I really need a gaming chair?

Do you really need fitting shoes? Do you really need a fast, shiny car that can do more than just get you from A to B? Do you really need a PC-chair, that looks awesome, fits your size perfectly and feels incredibly comfortable? Or is your mother’s kitchen chair all you ever dreamed of? I guess you can answer this question by yourself but let us be honest about this: It is not just about needing something, it is also about indulging yourself with the best gaming experience possible. You have earned it.

What makes a good racing chair?

Regardless if you want to buy a seat to upgrade your Playstation 4, Xbox 360 or PC gaming experience there are certain characteristics to keep an eye on. The best chairs offer a broad array of adjustability (4D-Armrests, lumbar & neck support), are crafted precisely (stitching, covering), are made out of quality materials (real leather, steel) and trump with a mind-blowing design. All of this makes sure that your gaming computer chair is comfy, durable and eye-pleasing. Just follow my advice and I will make sure that you get the most bang for your buck!

Isn’t a gamer chair too expensive?

How many hours do you sit in front of your PC playing video games or browsing the web every day? Believe me when I say that the consequences of sitting on a crappy computer chair that is by no means ergonomic can lead to serious health issues – and to you looking like crap. Would you not invest a few hundred quid to get yourself a comfortable mattress? So why not invest a little more into a gaming chair that will not only benefit you health wise but upgrades your gaming experience as a whole. By the way: a quality, ergonomic non-gaming PC-chair will most likely cost a lot more!

Fabric, PU- or real leather - what to choose?

Real leather gives you the best sitting-conditions out of all surface materials and does come with a certain prestige. It absorbs humidity without becoming damp and releases it into the ambient air. Synthetic or PU-leather looks noble is very durable and as easy to clean as its genuine sibling but does not feature the same qualities in matters of comfort. Fabric resides between genuine- and PU-leather climate wise but does fall behind in durability because it suffers more from abrasion. If you want a luxurious optic and an easy to clean material then go with a leather gaming chair, if that is not your concern, then fabric is a fine choice as well.

Alright, Now Let’s Get Yourself A New PC Chair!

There are three ways you can go on from here:

Check out the top brands: GOTURBACK features the Brand Finder leading you to a detailed page with purchase advice for every renowned brand. I present you the best chairs and series of the top gaming furniture manufacturers including tips on how to find the seat that fits you the best.

Start with your size: Probably the easiest way to get yourself the perfect chair for gaming is to tell me your body size and weight. The GOTURBACK Size Guide will filter out the seats that are too small or too big and only show the ultimate gamer chairs for your measurements.

Let your bankroll decide: Although this is not the way I would prefer, I made arrangements to classify each chair regarding its price. From low-budget, over medium and high end all the way up to premium – make your choice.

Whether you start with brand, size or budget, the second step will be your responsibility. You have to decide if you want a more racing-like look or a PC-chair with a luxurious appearance. You choose the colouring: from a noble black or white to red, blue and even pink designs, the offer is there and now it is your turn to make a choice.

Brand Finder: The top gaming chair brands on the market

By today you can find many so called brands on Amazon or other marketplaces selling chairs for gaming – to be honest: Most of them are cheap, rubbish stuffed chairs made out of recycled plastic. They lack the comfort, the quality, the looks and they smell like toxic waste. If you do some research on Alibaba, you will find most of these Chinese made game seats at very low prices. All the resellers do is to buy them off the peg, print a logo patch on it and shoot some beautiful pictures to give you the impression of an unbeatable deal. Believe me: That is not what you are looking for.

A good computer chair is supported by a solid frame and base, glides on floor-friendly wheels, is built with premium materials, utilises a high-density foam that is comfy but does not wear out in no time and is equipped with a high-quality manufactured breathable cover.

For the untrained eye, it is challenging to distinguish between low- and high-quality game chairs. I have done countless reviews, I frequently exchange experiences with other experts, and I own at least one gamer chair of each notable brand. So what you will find on this list is the essence of the best gaming chair brands available today:

noblechairs

noblechairs: it does not get any better. Early 2016 this reputable brand made its first appearance on the PC gaming chair market and crushed other competitors with its remarkably high standards in comfort, material quality, functionality and design. Using top notch and extremely precise production methods from the car industry noblechairs brought the gamer seat to a whole new level.

DXRacer

Who has not heard of this brand? Being one of the pioneers on the gaming computer chair market, DXRacer offers a broad range of seats in numerous sizes, designs and colourings. From high-end models like the famous King series down to low-priced but still good quality PC chairs like the Racer 1 – the latter holding the record for being one of the best-selling gaming chairs of all time.

AKRacing has been the direct competitor to DXRacer right from the start. No doubt, there are a lot of similarities between these two brands – but is that a problem? Hell no, they are both great and they both produce high-quality chairs for gaming. AKRacing seats meet nearly every requirement you could ask for only falling behind premium brands like noblechairs.

Although it has been a little quiet around Vertagear since they released their first product line – the racing series – they still produce high-quality chairs featuring their very own style and charm. More than that they recently hit the high-end market with their innovative Triigger-Series bringing a fresh breeze to the high-end gaming chair scene.

To be honest: the Arozzi PC gaming chairs have never been my cup of tea. On the other hand, they do make some good quality seats like the Torretta or the Verona Pro that are totally worth buying and definitely worth checking out. I think that with their latest releases, they are steering into the right direction.

What Nitro Concepts does best is stripping down gaming chairs to its very basics. While their seats apparently lack some features they come at a very affordable price. So if you are on a budget and not willing to save money for a noblechairs, Nitro Concepts might as well be your best pick.

Based in the UK GT Omega specialises in racing seats and computer gaming chairs. It is quite remarkable how well equipped their PC chairs are at a relatively affordable pricing: class 4 gas lift, steel frame, lumbar and neck cushions, 4-armrests – all that for less than 200 quid. I have got to admit, that my experiences with their products are limited, but I am going to do a detailed review soon.

This category I do not recommend buying from, but if you can not afford the premium brands, these small budget office gaming chairs might be something you can pretend to be satisfied with. My suggestion: wait until one of the better PC gaming chairs is for sale on special occasions like Black Friday. If you still want to try a bronze-level video game seat, this section will show you my “best picks”.

Size Guide: Find The Ergonomic Chair That Fits Your Needs Best

To achieve this, it is of vital importance that the measurements of the seat fit your physique as good as possible. Adults, kids, big or small statue – they all have different requirements to be able to sit comfortably and ergonomically in a gaming PC chair.

The fact that a lot of manufacturers provide us gamers with partially confusing and contradictory specifications makes it very challenging to find a suitable computer gamer chair via the internet. No worries, I have got your back:

In each gaming chair review, I make an effort to measure and analyse the seat as thorough as possible. As a result, the GOTURBACK Size Guide can deliver hands-on experiences and precise data with the aim of giving you the best advice possible!
